DJ Cable - Cartridge (Teaser Video)

Forthcoming material from me.... Early Grime vibes....Enjoy!

DJ Cable - Ghanaian Funk (Free Download)

Okay, so I actually use Ableton to make beats... But I thought I'd post a pic of one of the greatest samplers of all time just for the hell of it...

Ghanaian Funk by djcable

I made this last month, and recently stuck it on Soundcloud as a free download. If you like it and want to either:

a) Use it on your DJ sets
b) Spit/Sing over it
c) merely stick it on your MP3 player and vibe out

Feel free.

Elijah & Skilliam "01012011 Mix"

I'm a few days late posting this, but don't watch that...

Having been mostly responsible for the recent resurgence in instrumental Grime, Elijah & Skilliam aka Butterz are always pushing new talent, as well as making some awesome mixes. Following on from last year's "01012010" mix, they've gone in with a load of new tunes from up-and-coming producers who you will hear a lot more of in 2011, such as Darq E Freaker and Mr. Mitch...

Been caning this for a while now... One of the new signings to Alex Nut's Eglo Records, Arp 101's new release is a solid slice of warm, chilled Electronic goodness (NME journos, eat your heart out).

If you like this, be sure to tune into Alex Nut's show on Rinse FM, Saturdays from 1pm to 3pm.

100 Akres Presents: The Billy Ocean Beat Tape

Fresh from recently dropping his rather dope Cyndi Lauper Beat Tape, FreshNerd is back with another sick instrumental EP, this time flipping Billy Ocean's 1984 album, Suddenly.

In his words:

"Here are my latest works designed to damage the muscles in your neck. Billy Ocean's 1984 album, Suddenly, had gems such as Caribbean Queen and Mystery Lady. Those tracks initially drew me to flip and chop the living sh*t out of this LP. This time around I even remixed Mos Def's Priority (from the Ecstatic album) over one of these Billy Ocean slappers and the outcome....well, let's just say its what made Billy utter the words "This sh*t is bananas!""

J Beatz "1 Dutty EP" Sampler (Video)

Shouts to J Beatz, who recently hit me up with a copy of his new EP, which will be out soon on vinyl and digital from iTunes, 7 Digital, Hmv, Tesco, and all other good record stores...

Not much to say except that all 4 tracks are straight fire, especially Tazer and Cash Point. Expect to hear some of these on July's podcast!

EP Tracklisting:

01. Dutty (Instrumental To Big H Feat. Skepta & Bossman - Life & Death)
02. Tazer (Instrumental To Badness & Shizzle - Tarzan)
03. Cash Point
04. Ragga Muffin

El-P "Meanstreak"

Here are a couple of beats from El-P's forthcoming "Weareallgoingtoburninhellmegamixxx3", which drops August 3rd on Gold Dust Records.

"Meanstreak" is a dark, three-part instrumental suite, whilst "Whores (The Movie)" sounds as seedy as the title suggests...Worth checking out if you like your experimental/instrumental Hip Hop.

Physical copies of Volume 3 will include download links for the first two volumes, which were only given out at live shows.
